Review: Best Automatic Wire Stripper I’ve Used – Fast, Clean, and Very Reliable - This wire stripper is easily one of the best wire stripping tools I’ve used for electrical and low-voltage work. It feels like a true professional-grade tool right out of the box. Build quality is excellent, as expected from KNIPEX. The tool feels solid, lightweight, and very well engineered. The spring-loaded automatic mechanism works smoothly and consistently, and the grips are comfortable even during long wiring sessions. In use, it strips wire very cleanly with little effort. Once adjusted, it automatically adapts to different wire sizes (10–24 AWG), which makes repetitive stripping jobs much faster compared to manual strippers. It performs especially well in the common 18–22 AWG range, where it is very consistent and rarely damages the conductor when used properly. The built-in stop for strip length is also helpful for getting repeatable results, especially when working on panels or multiple identical connections. Pros: -Excellent build quality and durability -Fast, automatic wire stripping saves time -Clean strips with minimal wire damage when set correctly -Comfortable grip for repeated use -Great for electrical, automotive, and low-voltage work Cons: -Premium price compared to basic strippers -Takes a little practice to dial in perfectly -Not ideal for all specialty insulation types Overall: This is a top-tier automatic wire stripper that really shines in professional or frequent-use environments. If you work with wiring often, it’s absolutely worth the investment for the speed and consistency it provides.
Review: Difficult to improve over this design - **Knipex Automatic Wire Strippers, 10-24 Gauge Review** **Discovery and First Impressions:** I first heard about the Knipex Automatic Wire Strippers on Adam Savage's YouTube channel, Tested. I usually trust his recommendations, so I decided to give these a try. I have some experience with wire stripping, and I plan on doing a lot more, which is why I got them. **Performance:** These wire strippers are amazing when it comes to performance. They strip the ends of wires perfectly, which makes the process really satisfying. I've even found myself stripping spare wires just for fun. You can adjust how much wire you want to strip and how strong the tension is. Even with small wires, I've never had any issues with snapping them. The tool seems to adjust its tension really well, whether you set it high or low. There's also a cutter on top, though it's in a bit of an awkward spot, but it works fine. **Ergonomics:** The ergonomics of this tool are fantastic. It fits well in your hand with a full-handed pistol grip lever action that's comfortable to use. If you have a lot of wires to strip, this tool makes the job much more enjoyable. **Build and Material:** Now, this isn't a cheap tool. It's for people who plan to do a lot of wire stripping and want to save time. While it's a bit pricey for regular folks, it's worth it if you need to strip a lot of wires. However, it is a bit disappointing that the entire tool is made of plastic. Even though it's durable, I expected a bit more for the price. But knowing Knipex, their products are usually high quality and last a long time, so it's only a minor "annoyance" and I didn't dock any stars for it. **Overall Thoughts:** These wire strippers are a joy to use, which is surprising to say about such a tool like this. They're high-performing, likely to last, but come with a higher price tag. If you need to strip a lot of wires, these are worth considering. But if you're not sure if you need them, you probably don't.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can anyone confirm these are genuine knipex made in germany or knockoffs?**
A: KNIPEX items that are noted as 'shipped from and sold by Amazon' are shipped to Amazon from the official KNIPEX US Warehouse.

**Q: What is the stripping range? will it strip 14, 12, and 10 awg copper wire, both stranded and solid?**
A: It will strip 14, 12, and 10. The 10 feels a little harsh on the tool so I do it in 2 chomps, turning the wire some to get the side of jacketing stripped. I work with stranded so I assume solid is just the same.

**Q: What is the red tab at the top with moves to either plus or minus?**
A: The red tab that slide is for your length of how far you want to strip the wire?

**Q: why so cheap there are no instructions and no complete video?**
A: These wire strippers are a bargain but cut and strip wires precisely and easily. Handles are plastic, rather than metal, which probably accounts for the price. If you have ever used wire strippers you won’t need a video or instructions to figure it out.  Made in Germany, by the way…,

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Gold Standard for Precision and Speed
*by A***K on April 17, 2026*

I’ve used my fair share of wire strippers over the years, but the KNIPEX Automatic Wire Stripper is in a league of its own. Here is why this tool is a permanent fixture in my kit: -Consistency: It handles the 10-24 AWG range effortlessly. The self-adjustment mechanism is remarkably accurate, providing a clean strip every time without nicking the inner conductors, which is critical for quality electrical work. -Ergonomics: The 7.25-inch frame fits perfectly in the hand. It’s lightweight enough for extended use but feels robust enough to survive a busy shop environment. -Efficiency: The "one-squeeze" operation significantly speeds up repetitive tasks. Whether I'm working on terminal blocks or general repairs, the time saved adds up quickly. -Integrated Cutter: Having a reliable wire cutter built into the handle is a small but vital detail that eliminates the need to switch tools constantly. If you’re tired of struggling with manual strippers or cheaper automatic versions that pull on the insulation, just get the Knipex. It’s a precision instrument that pays for itself in saved time and reduced frustration.
